Wow, I didn't realize getting a person out of a hole would be so complex.

Well, if you consider that it must be a 700 meter long hole, where the rock that has to be drilled, is full of sharp edge minerals, and you want to take them out of the hole in one piece and fast, it gets kind of "messy", you know ?

That is very hard rock, compared to the 'soft' rock in coal mines; and the last such rescue of this nature was in a coal mine at less than a tenth the depth, and that took several weeks of continuous drilling. I would think one of the best ways to assist these men is for them to know that there are a lot of people world-wide rooting for them. I once spent time as a contractor on a mine shaft drilling operation on the Kalgoorlie goldfields, it must have been the last one sunk; and it was Thyssen mining employing me to sort out the stores and purchasing. After that the method changed to just digging a massive hole and using giant haul-packs to trundle the rock to the surface: Kalgoorlie is now in danger of falling into one the biggest man-made holes on the planet.

If they only had computers and all the shipbucket partsheats then time for them would really fly
Hearing about them really makes me sad inside but I will really follow this.
I hope this will be a happy ending because those men deserves it.
I will hold my thumbs

As the diameter of the rescue shaft is no more than that of a bicycle wheel, the trapped miners must maintain low body mass to fit the rescue equipment, so diet and exercise will count. I thought to encourage them we could all maintain a similar svelt shape

This is an amazing recovery from a technical point of view.
